AGENCY OF ADMINISTRATION FOREWORD
Debt Affordability Committee Report – Background
The Capital Debt Affordability Advisory Committee (CDAAC) was established in 1990. Its
primary mission is to make an annual advisory recommendation to the Governor and to
the Legislature for the maximum amount of new long-term net-tax-supported debt that
prudently may be authorized for the next two fiscal years.  The seven-member Committee
is comprised of the Secretary of Administration, the State Treasurer (Chair), the Auditor of
Accounts, an individual selected by the Vermont Municipal Bond Bank, two individuals
appointed by the Governor, and one individual appointed by the State Treasurer. 
In forming its recommendations, the Committee has historically considered key

affordability standards including State debt per capita, State debt as a percentage of
personal income, and projected annual debt service as a percent of projected State
revenue. In 2008, the Legislature expanded the Committee’s charge to include
consideration of the impact of capital spending upon the economic conditions of the State
and the cost-benefit analysis of various levels of debt, types of debt and maturity
schedules. 
The CDAAC benchmarks the State of Vermont against other triple-A rated states in
formulating its recommendation for the maximum authorization amount of net-tax-
supported debt to be issued each fiscal year.  The Committee is guided annually by
Vermont’s ability to meet the triple-A rated state, five-year averages for the mean and
median of per capita debt load, and debt as a percentage of personal income, based on
this capacity while maintaining the highest possible credit-rating and remaining within the
guidelines adopted by the Committee. 
Based on data from Moody’s: 

Vermont’s 5-year average debt per capita figure is $978, which is above both the 5-
year mean and 5-year median for triple-A rated states.
Vermont’s 2018 net tax supported debt as a percentage of personal income is 2.0%,
which is better than the 5-year mean and worse than the 5-year medium for triple-A
rated states. With respect to the amount of debt service paid out of operating revenues
(general fund and transportation, and not education fund), the CDAAC currently follows
a 6% guideline.  At present, the State’s debt service liability represents approximately
4.0% of operating funds, safely within CDAAC guidelines.
FY20-21 Recommended Debt Authorization 

The Committee recommends a maximum 2-year net-tax-supported debt authorization not
to exceed $123,180,000 for the fiscal years 2020 and 2021. This recommendation
represents a 7.0% decrease from the $132,460,000 2-year recommendation for fiscal
years 2018 and 2019.  
i
Rationale for Recommendations 
The Committee provided the following rationale for its $123,180,000 2-year
recommendation; 
Authorization of this level of debt complies with the State’s triple-A debt guidelines.
Authorization of this level of debt is consistent with the current expectations of the rating
agencies, and we believe this authorization demonstrates that the State continues to
manage its debt issuance program in a prudent and restrained manner.
Vermont’s Credit Rating 

Moody’s Investors Service, Standard & Poor’s, and Fitch Ratings are the primary organizations
that assign credit ratings to state and municipal debt.  These credit ratings inform investors as
to the relative risk of the issuing state or municipality and are based on the issuer’s financial
health and economic outlook. Credit ratings rank state issuers from the highest, a triple-A
rating to the lowest investment grade rating, a triple-B rating. States and municipalities with
lower credit ratings must pay higher interest rates when issuing bonds. 
Vermont’s general obligation debt is currently rated triple-A (highest) by Fitch Ratings,

double-A1 (second highest) by Moody’s Investors Service and double-A plus (second-
highest) by Standard & Poor’s.  These ratings make Vermont the highest-rated state in
New England, and one of the highest-rated states in the Country.  Continued prudence
with regards to borrowing practices could help the State to achieve and maintain triple-A
ratings from all three rating agencies. 
Rating agencies look at a variety of data when considering a bond rating.  The Official
Statement, or bond prospectus, is a critical document as are the State’s most recent
financial statements.  Telephonic and in-person meetings with the ratings agencies are
also held, at which time the agencies are given the opportunity to ask specific questions
about the documentation provided in connection with a proposed debt issuance, as well as
make inquiries and informal judgments about the State’s economy, its overall financial
condition, and overall management of the State’s fiscal affairs. 
It is critically important for Vermont to continue to at least maintain and, if possible, improve
upon its current bond ratings.  The State’s practices of maintaining debt ratios in accordance
with CDAAC guidelines and of issuing debt with level annual principal installments represent
debt management characteristics that have allowed Vermont’s highly rated bonds to be issued
at increasing annual amounts in order to cost-effectively fund infrastructure and other capital
improvements; these sound practices should be continued.  Not only does Vermont’s credit
rating impact what it pays on its general obligation debt, its rating also affects municipal bond
ratings and the quasi-public bodies that also issue bonds, such as the Municipal Bond Bank
and the Vermont Housing Finance Agency.  The State’s bond rating is an important measure
to be zealously defended and guarded against so as to help ensure the lowest cost financing
for Vermonters.

SEC. 1 APPROPRIATIONS: DEPARTMENT OF BUILDINGS & GENERAL SERVICES
The sum of $41,318,423 is the total amount requested for fiscal years 2020 and 2021 to
be appropriated to the Department of Buildings and General Services (BGS). The
Commissioner is authorized to direct funds appropriated in this Section to the projects
contained in this Section; the individual allocations in this Section are estimates only:
The following sums are requested for Fiscal Years 2020 and 2021:
1. BGS ~ Engineering/Architectural Costs .................................................. $7,318,423
The sum of $7,318,423 is requested to support the general operation of the BGS
Engineering and Construction Division for the next two (2) years. In FY 2010, the
legislature authorized the BGS Engineering and Construction Division costs to be funded
with Capital money. The Engineering and Construction Division provides the planning,
engineering, architectural, and construction oversight services for a significant portion of
the Capital Bill. This Division delivers this service for all BGS Capital requests as well as
several other government entities that receive Capital Appropriations. Without this
program, there will be no existing mechanism in place to accomplish the goals set forth in
the Capital Bill.

Standard technological security measures should be implemented in all state facilities as

feasible and vary based on numerous factors such as threat level, size and location of the
facility. These measures include the installation of panic and intrusion alarms, card access,
lock down buttons, intercoms, door release buttons and cameras. Other items such as
reception windows and secured parking may also be addressed at sites where applicable.
The funds requested in this fiscal year would support the installation of security technology in
approximately twenty state facilities. By completing these installations, all facilities with
identified threat levels 1, 2 and 2+ will have appropriate security infrastructure.

3. Statewide Major Maintenance ...............................................................$13,000,000
The Department of Buildings and General Services (BGS) is responsible for the
maintenance of approximately 236 buildings statewide, a public investment with a
replacement value of about $834,540,000. Many of these structures are more than thirty-
five (35) years old and some are well over sixty-five (65) years old. The maintenance
budget for the management of this infrastructure should be between 2% and 4% of the
value of the infrastructure (3% is about $25,036,200). The operating budget for
maintenance is about $12,240,490 for fiscal year 2019, which covers salaries and routine
maintenance. The requests for $6,500,000 for FY 2020 and $6,500,000 for FY 2021 are
targeted for major replacements or repairs of infrastructure that cannot be accomplished
through operating revenues. (See graphical representation on next page.) One of the
reasons for our relatively high monetary request for the foreseeable future is that we are
completing the Facility Condition Assessments, which have brought to light many
necessary repairs, replacements and upgrades needed at our correctional and other
facilities.
Examples of proposed projects include:
Floor Coverings Building Masonry Cleaning & Repair

Elevator Retrofits Window Replacements
Re-Paving Projects HVAC Duct Cleaning & Re-Balancing

4. Statewide ~ Contingency, Planning, and Reuse
Annual Appropriation .............................................................................. $1,000,000
The sum of $500,000 is requested in FY 2020 and $500,000 in FY 2021 for contingency,
planning, and reuse. The three categories were combined in FY 2018 and FY 2019 to
provide greater flexibly to the department to respond to changing market trends, place a
greater emphasis on the planning phase, and address the planned and unplanned needs
of our customers.
This appropriation will be used to cover shortfalls due to changing market conditions that
affect bids, estimating challenges, and unforeseen conditions that impact project costs.
These funds provide badly needed flexibility to support several hundred annual BGS
projects. The contingency funds are essential to the department to address shortfalls
created during the bidding process when bids exceed appropriations or available funding.
Project estimating is not an exact science and is most often affected by market
conditions. Contingency funds are also used to address shortfalls that occur as a result of
unforeseen conditions and project funding is not available to cover those additional costs.
With the creation of a Planning Unit in 2017, the department is placing a greater
emphasis in the Planning Phase, the most critical phase of project development. During
this phase, our planning team develops scopes of work, a cost estimate, and project
delivery schedule. This will help reduce or eliminate scope creep, result in greater
accuracy in the development of project estimates and spending profiles, provide an
accurate project delivery timeframe, and allow BGS to appropriately allocate resources in
the design and construction phases of project delivery.
Finally, these funds will be used to respond to the changing programmatic needs of the
agencies and departments we serve through space moves and space modifications. As
agencies and departments look for opportunities to become more efficient, enhance
communication and collaboration, and integrate new programs, they have associated
space modification requests.
These funds provide the Commissioner with the ability to keep projects moving forward
and with the necessary flexibility to use these funds where they are most needed. They
are needed each year to support BGS in responding to the Legislature and Executive
Direction as outlined in the Capital Bill.

In November of 2018 Desman Design Management prepared a Condition Appraisal

Report detailing bond failure between the precast filigree deck slab and the 3½ inch
cast in place top coat, due to high chloride contaminations (road salt). The Report
recommends removal of the contaminated 3½ inch concrete top coat, repair and/or
replacement of full depth concrete slab replacement, concrete beam replacement. The
drainage, electrical and fire suppression systems will also need to be replaced due to
severe deterioration.
The sum of $2,481,000 from prior year appropriations will be used for design and to
start construction or the repairs. The sum of $5,000,000 is in FY’20 and $5,500,000 in
FY ’21 is requested to complete the repairs to the parking structure.

6. Springfield ~ Southern State Correctional Facility - Door Control System
Replacement…………………. ................................................................ $2,450,000
Southern State Correctional Facility (SSCF) is the next facility most critically in need of a door
control system replacement. The system is over 15 years old and is a proprietary system
requiring licensing by the contractor to be able to service the system and provide recommended
upgrades. This system has had numerous failures since the facility opened and is difficult to
service due to the limited number of contractors who are able to work on the system. The camera
server at SSCF is end-of-life and has been temporarily repaired to allow camera function until the
new system is installed. This facility will be upgraded to the system chosen for Northern State
Correctional Facility (NSCF) in Newport, currently under construction. The existing perimeter
intrusion detection system (PIDS) is also end-of-life. A new PIDS will be installed at SSCF that
will integrate with the new touch-screen based control system.
Design is expected to begin in Summer of 2019, with construction expected to begin in early
2020, lasting about 1 year. Work will require the relocation of inmates off-site when work is being
completed in living areas. This request is for funds to design and construct the door control
system for SSCF and includes out-of-state housing costs for inmates during work in the living
units, DOC operational costs, and full-time Clerk of the Works expenses.

7. Newport ~ Northern State Correction Facility - Replace DDC Controls .... $1,800,00
The Northern State Correctional Facility was constructed in 3 phases in 1992, 1996 and
1998. Recently a number of systems were upgraded within the facility including the fire alarm
system, door control system, and perimeter fence intrusion detection system. One system
that was not upgraded and is in desperate need of upgrading is the DDC controls which
monitor and control the HVAC systems within the buildings. The system is computer based
and most of the controllers are no longer made, as computer technology has constantly
evolved over time. Should a controller fail, a newer style controller would have to be installed,
which will require extensive programming and probably sensor and actuator change out to be
compatible with the new controller. Instead of doing this piecemeal with a one-at-a-time
emergency replacement by the current vendor, BGS would like to bid out wholesale
replacement, which would open up the project to all the control vendors, which will provide
the State with the lowest possible project cost in the long run.

8. Montpelier ~ 120 State Street Life Safety Renovations ……………..……$3,500,000
120 State Street is a modernist white marble clad structure with modest Art Deco
architectural features. The building is listed on the National Register for Historic Places.
Recently the building has undergone interior renovations on each of the 5 floors. BGS is
planning a deep energy retrofit for the building in four years. The limited scope of the
project is to redesign the rear entry, accessible entrance, stair towers and freight elevator
to meet compliance with current codes. As well as waterproofing the foundation to
resolve the ground water infiltration problems, and infrastructure issues.
The project was originally planned over one construction season. The Department of Fire
Safety mandated that the project be split into two phases, to allow for maximum egress to
be open at all times. The first phase consists of demolition and construction of the central
rear egress, including construction of the enclosed accessible ramp, as well as
waterproofing the east side of the existing foundation. The second phase starting May
2019 will include demolition and reconstruction of the stair towers and waterproofing the
existing foundation.

The ASA Bloomer Building came under state ownership on January 1, 2018 after being a
lease to own property for 20 years. The building needs significant upgrades and
improvements to bring it up to state standards for health and safety of state employees and
the public who enter this building for state services. Many of the buildings system
components are original and beyond their rated life including the fire alarm system, many
vital heating and cooling components including heat pumps, heat recovery units, and the
cooling tower. Most of the carpet is original, worn, and beyond its rated life, as well as the
roof needs replacement. Several of these building components are in various stages of
design and bidding for replacement as funding was provided in FY19 as part of the budget
adjustment. This request is to continue planning for the future of the space needs and to
make vital repairs and replacements to sustain the building for many years to come.

The Vermont Department of Labor’s (VDOL) building at 5 Green Mountain Drive was built in the
1960’s. The building has never received systems upgrades or a major refurbishment. The building
fixtures are almost at a critical point where they are dilapidated and failing. Pre-emptive action is
needed in order to avoid unsafe worker conditions and unproductive working environments.
A Facility Condition Assessment was completed in 2017 and the report indicates that the building
is in need of $1.9 million in priority one upgrades. These upgrades included HVAC, electrical
entrance and branch circuiting, lighting, interior finishes and sitework. Currently the space is split
into private offices and needs to be renovated to open the space up and comply with the new
Vermont State Space Standards which will result in a more collaborative work environment and
more efficient use of the space. This work is estimated to be $5.1 million.

11. Montpelier ~ 115 State Street (State House) Restored Carpets, Seating, Draperies,
Interior Finishes……………………………………………………$200,000
The Vermont State House is one of the most heavily visited museums in the state with over
150,000 Vermonters, schoolchildren and tourists coming through its doors per year. With
a newly-resplendent golden dome, surmounted by a new statue of Agriculture, it will
undoubtedly attract even more visitors in coming years. All that traffic, particularly during
the legislative session in winter and spring, takes a toll on the most ephemeral elements
of the late 20th century interior restoration of the State House, and this appropriation
intends to be the first step toward ensuring that carpets, draperies, upholstery and other
interior finishes keep pace, as time goes on, with their necessary ongoing replacement.
Today’s State House was carefully restored to its mid-19 th century appearance from the
early 1980’s through 2000, with painstaking study of old photographs and inventories
informing the replication of carpets, draperies and upholstery with many of the same
materials from 140 years earlier. Now many of these materials have degraded due to
heavy use, and if we are to keep the authentic interiors of the State House intact, a plan
of careful in-kind replacement is needed, and the cycle of replacement must begin.
Planning the cycle and beginning to execute that plan is the purpose of this
appropriation.
We hope to engage a consultant who would assist the State Curator’s Office by
researching ways to most efficiently and least expensively reproduce 19 th century fabrics,
carpets and furniture conservation and upholstery in a changed restoration marketplace.
We also hope to reproduce several first and second floor carpets, rehabilitate 150 House
chamber chairs that were never restored to begin with, repair plaster and repaint certain
walls and ceilings, reproduce faded and deteriorating draperies in several of the principal
chambers, and create a cyclical plan to replace additional elements in ’24-’25.

Statewide ~ Integrated Eligibility and Enrollment .............................................. $9,000,000
The Integrated Eligibility and Enrollment (IE&E) Program’s vision is to ensure efficient
service delivery that lowers administrative costs, streamlines processes, and ensures the
cost of system maintenance is sustainable over time. The objective of the IE&E Program
is to improve the customer experience in the following ways:
Provide a single streamlined application, determination, and enrollment experience

that allows the customer to engage with the State through the channel of their
choosing. This include phone, web, mobile, in-person, and paper.
Facilitate a simple, user-friendly experience that allows the customer to maintain
continuous benefits, services, or health coverage, especially during critical life
transitions.
Ensure accurate and timely determination and notification of eligibility.
Deliver clear and concise information throughout the eligibility and enrollment
process through the customer’s chosen method and language.
An integrated IE&E technology system will also ensure:
Staff can serve Vermonters efficiently and effectively by maximizing focus on Case
Management and Customer Service.
Vermont can meet Federal and State mandates and requirements.
Improved data integrity and robust access to data for analysis, reporting and
modeling.
Financial integrity in the administration of benefit programs.
Once fully implemented, the IE&E solution will allow the State to retire the Vermont
Health Connect and ACCESS legacy systems for in scope programs and replace it with
modular, flexible architecture that the State can more easily build on over time.
14
Vermont has divided the IE&E Program into twelve distinct modules and has set a goal of
issuing three procurements a year, each under $2 million. This represents a shift in
Vermont’s implementation approach from previous “big bang” IE&E efforts, bringing
Vermont into alignment with best practices and reflecting CMS’ recommendations for
modular technology projects going forward.
Vermont will have access to high quality data, driving improved program coordination and
decision making. Moving away from the concept of a monolithic platform for IE&E and
instead implementing a cloud-based system of interoperable, modular components will
allow Vermont to be flexible and adapt to changing circumstances while also staying true
to business goals and ensuring compliance with Federal and State requirements.
